Super User retiredbosn Posted March 31, 2015 Super User Posted March 31, 2015 That one pic makes it look like the steering wheel is on the Left side! That's because it is The CDC type boat, Nitro made them for at least 10 years, are a center dual console, with the helm on the left. 2 Quote

Interesting...............I've never understood why the helm was on the right side of the boat........in the USA, that is. Quote
carlm01 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Probably because it's on the right in our automobiles ? Quote

Super User J Francho Posted March 31, 2015 Super User Posted March 31, 2015 Right side steering traces back to two things. Before motors, the steering oar was on the right, and boats moored with the dock to the left (where the term "port" originates. Later, as motors were used, having the extra weight on the right to counter the effect of a clockwise rotating prop worked best. 4 Quote

Blake94 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I have a 2005 triton aluminum boat. It's a 1652. I have a 90hp 2 stroke. With a 13-1/8 diameter, 19 pitch Michigan wheel apollo prop stainless steel. I have my motor all the way up and it bounces a little, but I'm only running 40mph, I have friends with identical set ups, running 50-53. Any opinions? Quote

Yeah owned a comp. hull 20' Bullet with a 300 pro XS too fast for me, scary, high 90s! Had a Bullet that I have on this thread that I loved was a low 80s boat with a 250XS. Heard the Strokers are the best driving of the go fast boats. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 29, 2015 Super User Posted April 29, 2015 Stroker is what I'd get if I go for another high speed hull. Quote
